I refuse to believe that was made in 15 minutes.

I hate you Razac. In a good way.

sorry to double post, I went back and read the guidelines again and it said dont commit to detail....I find that really hard to do for some reason, thats why i dont like drawing bold cartoony stuff, I just cant draw something without adding detail, it bugs me lol

I must have some kind of "attention to detail" disorder

Probably caused by an excess of seratonin. It's like you're always on ecstacy!

the result of too much bacon

hahah explains alot actually, Im the same with cleaning / tidying I go into the smallest detail even if people cant see them, although my rooms a tip...so its not that I mind mess, its just when I come round to cleaning Im like a neat freak.

This face took me 15 minutes or so in math class.

I lurve doodling.

some simple robots i wiggled out with the pen tool

:. at all. Don't know, I just don't find myself drawing things that pop out. More like 'profiles' (if you want to use that term).

Guess i'll try again.

you mean perspective?

you can do a profile and make it feel more natural without "popin" lolz

Meh..

well if you did it in 15 minutes then thats fine, unless 15minute-ish means more like 45 :-p.

Besides, your missing the point to the exercise, which is to complish weight and form to your work in quick easy strokes. We already know you can do detailed work,and you understand color... this is to basicly just an exercise to quickly flesh out form, which you said youself you were weak in.

dissing the execise by calling the pieces submitted so for as "bold cartoony Stuff" or a need to add detail to "disorder".. is a copout and it isnt gonna help your form anybetter.

Just a quick sketch of a girl.
Didn't want it to be monochromatic, so I decided to go with a bit of red.
To symbolize pain, y'know.

Nice !
Remind me of that girl from fight club.

I have a bunch of quick 15-20 minute sketches in my sketchbooks. If I like the sketch, I scan it in and paint it digitally. It's a good system because I can do a bunch of quick sketches until I get the one I like.

Very very nice. SHOW MORE!

ZOMG NESSIE!!!

This only took about ten minutes for me to complete. When I sketch, I usually draw lines into one another rather than leave them disconnected. I know there's a proven method, but I don't venture it.

Here's a sketch, it probably sucks but whatever.

ya, those are hot, you can already see the indications of details with just a few strokes.

haha nice! and cute too! ^_^

15 minutes and little detail? You sure? Im used to doing 30 second - 3 minute gestures that have similar amounts of detail to some of the ones shown so far. Razac's one was more what I would expect out of 15 minutes, thats a pretty long time for me. I guess I'll give this thread a shot when I feel like drawing again.

i hate my drawings

this took more or less 5 mins

Oh no I broke the rules I made it in 11 minutes :P
I know the antonomy is a bit weird but whatever

lool drawing with pencils in real life is like the only way i can possibly look good. ill show some stuffz later. (maths next lawl)

awesome MC!

i had a question for you..

hope i manage to explain myself properly...
my pics always seem to be "static"..no matter how i draw them, i very rarely get the right feel for them...they alway come out in a plastic pose...do you have any tips on how i could practice to get my images looking a bit more "dinamic"?

</half gibberish>

well good for you!, post somethin instead of braggin,lolz its gettin old.
not to mention this aint a speed contest,. and maybe you should rethink how fast you complete your forms, cause to be honest,I looked at your portrait thread and you have great attention to color, but your forms are busted..

basicly dont worry about details right now think of everything in the forum of shapes and block everything out.. basicly everything I draw is in the form of a robot.. I know that sounds silly but thats how I work it out,. cyclinders for legs, a rectangle for the head, and so forth. its gotta work in that for first before you go in on the detail.. at least thats the only way I can do it.
im sure there genious's out there that can draw in the detail first, I cant. I need to block everything out then go in.
